AI Summary
Based on 1 community report
This local rate number on Numbers Telecom is generating a high spam score of 80/100, though it has only received one community report so far. The report describes a robo call that hangs up after just one or two rings, with suggestions it may be linked to utility scams. These types of calls often use automated diallers to test which numbers are active, potentially setting you up for follow-up scam attempts or selling your details to other scammers. The hanging up quickly is a common tactic rather than a sign the call is harmless. With limited reporting data, it's hard to confirm the exact nature of this number, but the robo call pattern is suspicious. If you receive calls from this number, don't answer unknown calls and consider blocking it. Never provide personal or financial details over the phone to unsolicited callers.

What this data can and cannot tell you
Everything on this page comes from reports submitted by members of the public about calls and texts that showed this number. Caller ID can be spoofed, so the person contacting you may not be the genuine holder of the number, and a legitimate number can be misused.

Safety score
1 reportHow this score was worked out
Each report rates the number as safe, unknown, suspicious or spam. The score blends those ratings and weighs what each report describes, so a clear scam counts for more than a missed call. Each person counts once, a few negative reports are held closer to neutral until more arrive, and a number only reaches high risk once several people independently agree. Feedback votes on reports can also influence it slightly. Scores of 70% and above count as high risk, 40% to 69% as medium, and below 40% as low; a low-risk number reads Maybe Safe once someone reports it as safe, and Safe once three people have.
